There is no better low-carb keto lasagna than this recipe using Crepini egg wraps. Stacked egg thins with creamy ricotta filling, rich tomato sauce, & tons of ground beef & spices are irresistible. So much flavor but so little work & guilt. Like my low-carb Slow Cooker Chicken Cacciatore, you need this lasagna in your life.
Keto lasagna this deliciously authentic and comforting is one of my best recipes thanks to the secret layer that is Crepini Egg Thins! If you love pasta and Italian food, eating low-carb, keto, diabetic-friendly, and gluten-free can be hard - not anymore!! Imagine a large slice of lasagna with layers of cheesy meaty Italian goodness stacked high. Then imagine that same slice of heaven is only 4 net carbs, FOUR! Best keto lasagna ever.
The secret layer that replaces the lasagna noodles in my recipe is Crepini Egg Thins. If you have never heard of them, you better check them out now at https://www.crepini.com/. No one will miss the pasta in this healthy gluten-free lasagna recipe. Enjoy a keto Italian complete meal with some crispy baked artichoke hearts & mealtime is easy & tasty.
Low-carb lasagna does not have to be with zucchini, eggplant, or with a noodle replacement. Vegetables in a lasagna recipe often create a pasta dish that does not hold up or tends to get watered-down or soggy due to the noodle replacement. This easy homemade low-carb lasagna does not get watery and is also gluten-free which is just amazing. This authentic lasagna al forno is the most amazing keto ground beef recipe.
I find them at my local Costco which is great as I go through them fast so a double pack is perfect. Many Costcos, Walmarts, Publix, and Sprouts Markets have them throughout the states, just check their locator on the website to find yours. A new addiction is about to happen and you are welcome!

Nutritional Information for Crepini Lasagna?
If you make the recipe as is, the nutritional information will be close to what I have calculated below. If you use different brands of cheese or a different pasta sauce, it will alter it as well. You can get this even lower with a different pasta sauce for example. For overall authentic flavor, this combo is ideal and soooo crazy low carb already. Enjoy it for all the comfort food that lasagna is meant to be!

Yes, that is what we have right here. This comforting keto lasagna recipe is not only low carb but is authentic tasting, and comforting, and it is also super easy to make. This is what I call a "half scratch" recipe where a few ready-made store-bought items are used to make prep time so much faster.
Ingredients for Crepini Lasagna
Instead of lasagna noodles or sheets, Crepini egg thins with cauliflower will be used as the pasta in this keto lasagna. You will also need classic Italian ingredients such as tomato sauce, ground beef, ricotta, garlic, parmesan, egg, and mozzarella cheese.
There are no noodles to cook and I use a store-bought pasta sauce from Trader Joe's or you can use Rao's sauce which is super keto-friendly. (shhh, do not tell Nonnie!)
What are Crepini Egg Thin Wraps?
They are crepes made of eggs, cauliflower, spices, and a few other ingredients. Crepini wraps are healthy, thin, and tasty wraps. They last for about a week in the refrigerator once opened, so enjoy them fast. They are great for breakfast burritos, tacos, quesadillas, sandwich wraps, ad lasagna. My other favorite is using them for the Best Keto Chicken Enchiladas.

How to Make Low-Carb Keto Lasagna
- Cook and season the ground beef.
- Mix the ricotta filling ingredients together.
- Layer the lasagna.
- Bake in the oven for 40 minutes.
Begin by browning crumbled ground beef in a medium-sized saute pan on medium heat. Add garlic clove in the final minutes. Drain fat and set aside. Next, in a medium-sized bowl combine the beaten egg, ricotta, and parmesan. Stir to combine. Now it is time to start layering the ingredients in the round pan.

How to Assemble the Lasagna
Start with sauce and two Crepini Egg Thins
How Long to Bake Crepini Lasagna
Just look at all those layers of ground beef, garlic, cheeses, tomato sauce, and egg thin layers. They stay together when sliced and the added egg ensures the cheese layer has not only more protein but holds together. The recipe below serves four people. I have two casserole dishes this size and next time I may want to make two of these so I have leftovers for lunch. We are a family of 5 but one of my kids is not a lasagna (mainly ricotta) fan. So, for now, this will do just fine but I really wanted leftovers once I started eating this.
Lasagna layers ready for the oven
How to Freeze, Store, & Reheat Lasagna
This lasagna is a great make-ahead recipe. You can assemble it and either bake it right away or wrap and bake it later. To freeze, wrap the casserole dish in plastic wrap and then foil to be sure it is air-tight. Keto lasagna can be frozen for up to 2 months.
To defrost, place the casserole dish in the refrigerator for 2 days. Once it has thawed, place the defrosted lasagna in the oven and bake as instructed. This works for both a prebaked and a lasagna that has been assembled and never baked.
If you have partial leftovers, wrap them or place them in an air-tight container. Then refrigerate for up to 3 days. To reheat microwave or heat in the oven until warm in the center.
KETO RECIPES TO SERVE WITH LASAGNA:
Serve this with a simple salad and my homemade ranch dressing. The amazing recipe is creamy, packed with herbs, and mayo-free!
If you want low-carb "garlic bread" to go with this, make my Keto Fat Head Rolls. I like to slice them in half, butter them, and sprinkle them with garlic powder.
Or find any of these great sides that go well with lasagna. Includes low-carb, gluten-free, & other great recipes to complete your meal.

Do you have any other recipes that include the egg thins?

Julie Scriver says
Made this today, we both thought it was wonderful! I almost missed the pasta, more for the texture that anything. Very tasty, will make again.
Angela says
Thank you Julie for letting me know you liked this recipe. Hearing it was wonderful and you will make this again really makes my day!
Jennifer says
As a life-long lasagna maker, allow me to instruct on an easier way to compile this: follow steps one thru six above, EXCEPT the browned meat should be blended into your sauce. The cheese mixture should be spread onto the Crepini, then a layer of the meat sauce; next, sprinkle mozzarella cheese. Repeat this layering 2 more times, and complete dish per steps 12 to the end, above.
It’s much easier & more efficient to spread the crepe with cheese, then add the wetter ingredient, which is the meat sauce. And you save a step and distribute the meat more evenly by having the meat blended into the sauce.
Angela says
Thanks, this is exactly what I do when I make it with regular pasta. I tried the spreading and placing with the delicate Crepini and it was a bit harder to get enough on there and not rip or sag as I moved it into the dish. I am sure their are more dainty spread/layer folks than me so they can try it for sure! And when I make my own homemade sauce, in goes the meat as well! Ok now with all this lasagna talk I want some now.
Michelle says
What a great way to make a keto lasagna!
Angela says
It is the best keto lasagna recipe thanks to the Crepini!
Ana Smith says
A really comprehensive guide to making this wonderful looking food. I hope to try it someday soon!

reece says
I just started doing keto, this will be a great addition to my keto recipes!
Kez says
I've been making my own version of Lasagne for years, which is basically just layers of meat and cheese because I couldn't think of anything that would replace the pasta component well enough. I'll have to see if I can find some Crepini in my town.
Angela says
Great, I hope you find the Crepini egg thins at your local store.
Nart says
I'm a big fan of lasagna and will never say no to a low-carb version!
Karen says
So glad I found this on Pinterest. I have lost over 100 pounds in the last 2 years by eating low carb and the only thing I miss still is pasta. This makes me miss it so much less since it was so good.
Angela says
Congrats on the weight loss Karen. I am so glad you are doing well and found a recipe to love and enjoy as you continue to stay healthy.
Nisha says
That looks like a perfect slice of lasagna .Low carb makes it even more appealing!
Kim S says
I absolutely loved this recipe as did my adult daughter and non Keto eating husband. Thank you for taking the time to develop and post it. We will make it often. I did make with the larger Crepinis which are what our Costco had. I just cut off a bit of the end so it fit in my rectangular pan then added the cut part in like a puzzle. It worked great! I did double the sauce, which I’m glad I did as it was still on the firm side (Yummily so). And added about 1/2 cup of finely chopped onions and some fresh basil. It was scrumptious!
Angela says
Thank you for sharing that you and your family loved this recipe. It made my day hearing how well this worked out for you and how creative you got with the puzzle assembly. If you liked this recipe, you may also love my chicken enchilada recipe that uses the Crepini egg thins too. Enjoy!
Kim Schwartz says
This lasagna is nothing short of AMAZING, My non keto husband loves it as does my adult daughter. My daughter states it’s her favorite keto recipe to date! It’s actually better than the sloppy restaurant lasagna! What a wonderful way to use Crepinis. Have made this twice before but Ammaking a triple batch today to share with my daughters who aboth follow keto lifestyle. Thank you for posting such an outstanding version of a beloved favorite comfort food.
Angela says
Thank you so much Kim for the wonderful message. I am so glad you all love it so much and everyone is eating what they love and staying healthy. It is really why I started this blog so I could share my love of food with others and they could share it as well. Enjoy and if you love this recipe so much, I highly recommend my keto chicken enchiladas recipe here on the blog, also with Crepini!
Becky says
Making this for thanksgiving, would I be able to make ahead or no?
Angela says
Yes absolutely. You can assemble it and have it ready ahead of time. It may take a bit longer in the oven coming from a cold refrigerator versus room temperature when you first assemble it. I hope this keto lasagna makes for a great Thanksgiving meal - Happy Holidays.
Kyla Salmond says
Your recipe sounds fantastic and I just recently bought egg cripinis so I am excited to try your recipe. I have one question though can I make it but not cook it and freeze it? It is just the 2 of us so I would like to make 2 smaller batches. One to cook and one to freeze.
Angela says
Yes! You can absolutely make it ahead and freeze it. I would place it in the fridge for a few days to defrost before baking.
Barbara says
We had this tonight and it was a hit for both my fiance and I. We are trying to slim down for the wedding in Fall and pasta is our weakness. No more - we are sold and will make this lasagna often.
Angela says
I am so glad you enjoyed this Crepini Lasagna recipe and it will help in your weight loss. Congrats on your upcoming wedding!
Joy Green says
It was great. My non-keto husband who is picky, even ate it all up as if it was regular lasagna!!!
Angela says
I just love hearing that Joy. Thank you so much for making the recipe and letting me know how much you both loved the crepini lasagna.
Maya Frank says
This was fantastic. I added a lot of garlic since we love that in our italian food but otherwise it is perfect as is.
Angela says
Glad you love the lasagna recipe - the egg thins really are the best pasta replacement.
Annie Mason says
THIS looks wonderful and easy. Our adult daughter lives with us and has lost 40 lbs in the last year. She wants to keep it off so her dad and I have changed our diets also. All for the good. Thanks for noting where you can find the ingredients. I will let you know how it goes.
Rachel Gillespie says
Yum! Keto friendly lasagna - win win!
Patrice says
This looks wonderful, especially for so many people following the keto diet who love lasagna! Will have to check out the crepini egg thins.
Mosaic Designs says
That Lasagna looks so delicious!!! I can't wait to try out your recipe, can't wait!!! I love Lasagnas...
Caroline Parrott says
I found this recipe to be easy and so good. No one at my house noticed I used the crepinis even. And like all lasagnas, go big because leftovers are even better!!!
Angela says
I am so glad that everyone loved the Crepini lasagna in the family. We love leftovers and I do make double every time for that reason.
Gary says
FANTASTIC!
Laura says
Where has this recipe been my whole keto life? I hate the zucchini lasagna noodle stuff and this was SOOO like real lasagna. Oh it is real lasagna. Thank you so much.

Great rec for subbing out the pasta. I would never have thought to use the crepini like this.
Patty at Spoonabilities says
This looks and sounds amazing! Although not on a keto diet, I'm always happy to try new recipes, especially when they look this good!
Rika says
This recipe looks amazing! I didn't know that I could make lasagna with crepini. Thanks for sharing this recipe idea. I love it.
Becky says
I just heated up my last piece and wanted to thank you. I made this for meal planning and it is the best. I am the only one doing keto in my house and this was 4 meals for me and so good every time. A diet saver and will make again.
Angela says
Yes, I love this keto lasagna for meal planning. It is so easy, stores well, and reheats perfectly. Enjoy.
Marissa says
My friend sent me this recipe to try. I thanked her and now thanking you. This was so easy and OMG so good. I am pretty sure it is even better than regular lasagna with pasta sheets. The best low carbohydrate lasagna recipe I have ever made.
Angela says
You are welcome.
Kate says
Like others said, this is an easy and good recipe. I miss pasta and this was the keto recipe I have been looking for. I will make this lasagna so many times it is that wonderful.
Riley says
I am in love. I wish I could hug you and thank you for this recipe. I am newly diagnosed with diabetes and have been losing weight but pasta is my weakness. There is no way something this good has no pasta but it does. Love love love
Joe says
The best lasagna. Low carb or all carb, this is the only recipe I make now. Thank you.
Darrell says
The best keto recipe ever. I miss pizza and pasta but no more. I made this lasagna and added pepperoni to it too. It was pizza lasagna love but low carb and happy for my keto diet. Everyone needs to make this lasagna. It is damn good.
Angela says
I love the pepperoni idea. I will try that next time. Thank you for the note and I am so glad you love the homemade keto lasagna.
Jonah says
Come on, where has this been all my life? I used ground beef & Italian sausage. It is just like regular lasagna. No it’s better.
Angela says
You are kind. This is a pretty darn amazing lasagna - I agree!
Amy Zuckerman says
AMAZING! it is a great Lasagna recipe in itself but making this with egg crepes you hardly taste a difference. It is completely delish and satisfying even to guests who don't need to watch carbs!
Angela says
Thank you so much for the rave review. I admit it is still one of my favorite recipes on the blog - so good and low-carb!
Dena says
This seems like it would be a good weight watchers recipe as well. Does anyone know how many points per serving?
Angela says
Hi Dena - I am not familiar with the points system for weight watchers. I believe there are calculators online where you can add nutritional information about this recipe and it will give you points. WW has a calculator on their app that you can try. There seem to be different ways to calculate when I research online - smart point, points plus, etc. I am not familiar with WW pints so these other sources will hopefully help you.
